Whether you're maintaining a Traxxas TRX-4 crawler, a TRX-6 scale rig, or any other compatible RC model, these precision-engineered screws are manufactured to the exact specifications required by Traxxas engineers to ensure your RC car performs reliably on every outing. As an authorised Traxxas stockist, RC Model Shop provides genuine OEM parts that maintain the integrity and performance of your investment.

These cap-head machine screws represent the kind of detailed, quality hardware that separates a well-maintained RC vehicle from one that suffers from loose components and poor performance.

The TRX2618 screws are specifically engineered to work seamlessly with Traxxas RC vehicles including the entire TRX-4 range and TRX-6 range.

Key Features

• M2.5 Metric Thread Size — These screws feature an M2.5 thread specification, which is the precise size required by Traxxas for secure fastening on their scale RC vehicles and crawlers, ensuring perfect fit and compatibility every single time.
• 16mm Length — The 16mm length provides the ideal fastening depth for Traxxas assemblies, preventing over-tightening issues whilst maintaining secure engagement through the full thread engagement.
• Cap Head Design — The distinctive cap head profile offers a larger contact surface than standard screws, distributing clamping force more evenly and reducing the risk of damage to surrounding components during installation and maintenance.
• Hex Driver Compatible — These screws feature a hex socket (Allen key) head design, allowing you to use standard hex tools for precise, controlled fastening without risk of stripping the screw head like you might experience with traditional Phillips or slot-drive fasteners.
• Machine Thread Type — Machine threads are engineered to cut into pre-drilled holes with precision, creating a permanent and reliable fastening point that won't loosen under vibration during aggressive RC driving or off-road crawling.
• Black Colour Finish — The black finish not only matches the aesthetic of modern Traxxas vehicles but also provides a degree of corrosion resistance, helping your fasteners maintain their appearance and function even after exposure to wet or muddy terrain.
• Pack of Six — With six screws per pack, you have multiple replacement pieces available for maintenance, repairs, or building new components, making this an economical choice for serious RC hobbyists who maintain their vehicles regularly.
• Genuine Traxxas OEM Component — As original equipment manufacturer parts, these screws are manufactured to Traxxas's exact specifications and quality standards, ensuring they perform identically to the factory-installed fasteners on your RC vehicle.

Technical Performance

The Traxxas TRX2618 cap-head machine screws represent precision fastening engineering designed specifically for the demands of scale RC vehicles. With an M2.5 metric thread diameter and 16mm length, these screws are engineered to provide secure, vibration-resistant fastening in the critical assembly points found throughout Traxxas TRX-4 crawlers and TRX-6 scale rigs. The cap head design with hex socket driver compatibility eliminates the frustration of stripped fasteners and allows for consistent, controlled installation using standard hex tools. Machine threads cut cleanly into pre-drilled holes, creating permanent fastening points that resist loosening even under the continuous vibration and stress associated with aggressive RC driving, rock crawling, and off-road bashing. The black finish provides a professional appearance whilst offering basic corrosion resistance to maintain longevity across varying weather conditions and terrain types. Each pack contains six pieces, providing a practical quantity for maintenance, component replacement, or building new assemblies. These genuine OEM components maintain the engineering integrity that Traxxas designed into every vehicle, ensuring that your RC crawler or truck performs as the manufacturer intended.
